Lyrics
That's life, that's what all people say
You're riding high in April, shot down in May
But I guess I have to change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June
That's life, funny as it seems
Some people get their kicks steppin' on dreams
But I don't let it get me down
'Cause this old word keeps getting around
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate
A poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself falling flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life, and there's no denying
I thought of quitting baby but my heart just won't buy it
If I didn't think it was worth of a single try
I'd roll myself up in a big ball and die
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate
A poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself falling flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life, and there's no denying
I thought of quitting baby, but my heart won't buy it
If there's nothing shaking here this July
We're gonna roll ourselves up in a big ball and die
